Redmi confirmed the K90 Ultra’s June 30 launch in China just hours ago, and Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station has already published gaming results for the device.
The K90 Ultra is built around Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite, Redmi’s in-house D2 graphics chip, and a 6,700mm² 3D Ice-Sealed Heatsink, all backed by a built-in active cooling fan that seems to be doing its job a little too well.
How the K90 Ultra held up across four major titles
According to DCS, the setup is capable of churning out 165fps on average in 60-minute Genshin Impact gameplay with 3x frame interpolation enabled. The average power consumption is reportedly 5.8W, and DCS notes that sustained performance in the cooling mode is stable throughout.
In Honkai: Star Rail, the K90 Ultra delivered 59.7fps while consuming 7.5W power on average. The 1% low, average frame rate, and power consumption are reportedly even better than those of the more powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, claims tipster.
Likewise, in PUBG, the device managed to yield 164.8 fps with virtually no frame drops. Honor of Kings, tested at its highest graphics preset, rendered at a steady 144fps with an average power draw of just 3.4W, and even the 1% low held at 140fps.
DCS notes that the Redmi K90 Ultra delivers even better gaming performance than Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered phones, thanks to its built-in fan. They also shared a side-by-side comparison against a fanless Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 smartphone, which is attached below.
Reports indicate that the device could pack a battery exceeding 8,500mAh and support 100W wired fast charging. The company is expected to reveal more details about its specifications in the days leading up to the launch event.
